I have moved my forum and closed the forum on my old server, I notice that a default message is displayed however can I edit this so rather than it saying the forum has closed for maitence it says that the forum has moved.

It looks like the message is database driven so do I change it in the database?

You would need to edit the language file

When I moved server I edited the common.asp file on the old server and added in the following at the top...

<%
Dim Current_page_URL
Current_page_URL = " http://www.mysite.com/ - " & Request.ServerVariables("URL") & "?" & Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING")
Response.Redirect( Current_page_URL )
%>

the Request.ServerVariables("URL") gets the page and the Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING") gets the querystring.

The user is then redirected to your new forum on the correct page
